dst challenge idea?


Recommended Posts

a dst boss speedrun

1. every single morning you must choose a different character (day 1 maxwell, day 2 wigfrid etc)
2. if you have chosen a character previously, you cannot choose them agian till you go through the entire roster of characters
3.normal surval world generation
4.run ends after defeat the celestial champion



(sub genera ideas)

>all boss run. Same rules but you have to defeat all but the seasonal bosses (so you are not limited to seasons)

>random intisity. same rules but your characters are chosen at random

>weird world. the world regenerates each day as well (minus the bosses)

>Hardmode. you must finish the run before you go through each character 3 times

>wes mode lol. every other character will be wes

Most of the characters aren't very different, so this wouldn't really be much of a challenge. The only characters with notable downsides wouldn't have them show up because you switch off in a day. Honestly this is probably easy mode since you get all your stats reset to full every 8 minutes, you wouldn't even need to eat.

ooh, I didn't think of that. The run is mostlly made to see if it can be faster or slower than basic speedruns. Maybe when you change characters your stats stay?

Would be slower than a normal speedrun since sometimes you're inefficient characters like Willow or Wilson. Even if the stats stayed when changing it wouldn't be much of a challenge to anyone who's somewhat familiar with the harder characters like Wormwood, and would probably still be easier than a normal run as one of those harder characters since most of the time you're an easier character.

It does sound like it might be fun to try to speedrun, for anyone who's into that, if the swaps were different. With a swap every 8 minutes there's not much time to try to plan around them so you'd basically just be ignoring the character perks whenever they aren't immediately convenient. If swapping was different in some way, like maybe every third or fourth day, then there might be some room to try to leave certain tasks for when you're someone who's better at them.

It would be better to change characters every time you kill a boss so you would have to think about the ideal time to use the strong ones. (Wolfgang, Wanda, Wigfrid etc.) 

How the challenge you proposed is possible without console command or suicide every day in wilderness mode (without character rotation)? Who going to write that mod?
Also, a little suggestion, if you want a challenge to be well thought out do it Super Mario Maker style: you can only post a challenge when you beated it first.

fair fair, overall it was just a thought I had and was wondering how/if people would like it or not. I am in no way good enought to do any kind of speedrun. Heck I still havent beaten fuelweaver on my own before... So yeah, im kinda bad
